The Chinese Dreamscape, 300 BCE-800 CE

Viac o knihe

The Chinese Dreamscape, 300 BCE-800 CE investigates what dreams meant in late classical and early medieval China. Mapping a common dreamscape that underlies manuals of dream interpretation, scriptural instructions, and other texts, Robert Ford Campany sheds light on how people in a distant age wrestled with- and celebrated-the strangeness of dreams.
